About the role

SpaceX is seeking a Sr. Software Engineer for AI Infrastructure (STARSHIELD) in Hawthorne, CA. You will design, deploy, and scale GPU/CPU infrastructure, building automation for on-prem Kubernetes clusters, and delivering high-availability systems that support national security data needs. You will mentor junior engineers, lead technical initiatives, and collaborate with AI teams to productize scalable software for critical missions.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
